It took a little extra time to get out of the station today, but the Rocky Mountaineer is on the move with RMRX 8020 (a GP40-3) and RMRX 8600 (an SD40M-2) for power. RMRX 8021 is currently in the shop. The Mountaineer does not have trackage rights on BNSF, so it has to the take the long way out of town, heading northeast toward UP's 36th Street Yard, and eventually west across the Belt Industrial Lead.
